As far as I could find, there wasn't a thread dedicated to everyone showing their musical equipment. And by that I mean, instruments to amplifiers, to effects to controllers and so on.

Here's my guitar stuff

Cool:).
I've never seen that amp before, is that a Roland JC 120 4x10 combo or a Roland keyboard amp or something along those lines? I've only ever seen the usual JC-120 amp.

I'll post some pics of my gear when I get a camera.

It's a Roland JC-160, the same as the 120 but yes, 4x10" instead of 2x12". They only made them for one year in 1976 and I was lucky enough to grab ahold of one off eBay for cheap. Very awesome amp, it goes so loud and seems to have a better low-end than the 120. I haven't even turned it past 3 and it's been unbearably loud!

Oh, that's cool. I thought the JC-160 had a longer production run than that,  didn't realise they were so rare, very awesome purchase you made indeedThumbs%20Up
I've heard how loud the JC-120 is. I can only imagine the JC-160 is an absolute beast!
Heavy as hell to carry around I bet?Tongue

OK - we've had a few of these before, but why not - here's my Hammond/Leslie combo:



Sadly unplayed for some time now...

It goes so damn loud! Though, I bet I'll never turn it past 5 to find out, it might make my body implode or something!

It is pretty damn heavy, but luckily it has wheels attached to the bottom which help out with moving it around - very convenient.

Wow, that's so awesome, I bet it sounds great! You should go play it right now! What are you doing talking about music to strangers instead of playing your Hammond organ? You have a Hammond organ with a Leslie for God's sake!

Well that's me told

I had lessons for about 2 years (from scratch, at the age of 40, never having touched a musical instrument before), but other stuff kept getting in the way... it's always kept oiled & regularly serviced though, so and and when (if?) I get back to music, the Hammond'll be waiting.

Actually, it doesn't sound great... it sounds magnificent!

Cranked up 1971 Hammond L122 + early 1970's Leslie 145 = potentially cracked walls, broken windows & seriously ped off neighbours.

Are you sure you want to see them all?
 
Fender Rhodes Stage 73,  w/ one broken tine and detached legs
ARP Solus, minor oscillator problems
Alesis QS6, mint
Yamaha Motif, my main keyboard
Gibson Les Paul Studio (Ferrari Red, '80s vintage), my main guitar
Carter Starter Pedal Steel, mint  (serious love/hate relationship)
 
sh*tty Peavey amp
sh*tty Fender Champ amp
 
Maybe a couple things I'm forgetting.  Think there's a Small Stone phase shifter around.  Maybe a Cry Baby or that may have fallen apart..  A lot of these are in storage down in the basement and would take serious effort to photo.  But if y'all want to see them, the digital camera is at the ready.

WOW! That Hammond seems amazing, well, all do, hehe.

What type of genre you play with it? (Sorry if you said it before)

Would love to hear some samples of all this great gear, especially that Hammond !
I am afraid my mini moog remains just a dream.

You can use computers to make music. So posting laptops is okay.

I have:

Fender Classic Series Jazz Bass. A beautiful instrument in every aspect. I bought it used in mint condition, so I'm unsure of when it's made, but maybe 02? 60's styled, pink metallic w/ matching headstock. Mexico-built, but a really, really nice instrument. So much better than the Standard series also built in Mexico. Just as good as the much more expensive American Vintage series.

Ibanez Roadstar II, -86. Black P-bass-ish thing. Mic is not the best, I've considered replacing it, but it plays beautifully and stays in tune surprisingly well. Made in Japan, before Ibanez moved the production of their cheaper models to Korea.

an Amada classical guitar. Not a particularly fancy guitar, but it sounds good and looks neat.

I also have an Epiphone SG which isn't well, partially due to a previous owner having played around with the wiring. Let's just say there are better guitars out there.

Photos will arrive later.
